Adding Rss Feed Script to Homepage

I want to add script from my blog to my homepage so that on the front page viewers can see my recent blog entries. How do I do it?

 

Its quite easy with PHP SimpleXmlElement, heres an example

<?php 
$url = "http://feeds2.feedburner.com/2raccoon"; 
$file = file_get_contents($url); 
$xml = new SimpleXmlElement($file);
foreach ($xml->channel->item as $entry){ 
echo "<p><a href='$entry->link' title='$entry->title'>" . $entry->title . "</p>"; 
}
?>

PHP:

 

r u using wordpress or something else
if you are using wordpress then u can manage easily.you can use rss Widgets

 

Script worked great, is it possible to limit number of posts that show. It shows 4 right now I only want two at a time?

 

post numbers can be easily tweaked in your feedburner account...

 

You can use EXEC-PHP its a wordpress plugin that allows you to run PHP code in your posts I.E. feeds

 

$url = "http://feeds2.feedburner.com/2raccoon";

$file = file_get_contents($url);
$xml = new SimpleXmlElement($file);
$total = 2;
$counter = 0;
foreach ($xml->channel->item as $entry) {
	if(++$counter > $total) break;
    echo "<p><a href='$entry->link' title='$entry->title'>" . $entry->title . "</p>";
}

PHP:

 

I am also having trouble with limiting the number of links for my rss feed. I use the same code as above, but how do I get only 3 different articles to show at a time?
